(Reuters) – Tiger Woods loved one of the vital well-known moments of his profession at the 17th at TPC Sawgrass, however on Friday on the Gamers Championship the similar hollow exacted its revenge when he made a quadruple bogey.

Woods was once crusing alongside easily, inside of placing distance of the lead when he arrived on the 146-yard par-three hollow, the place the island inexperienced leaves little margin for error.

He pulled his tee shot a slightly, however perceived to get fortunate when his ball landed at the fringe of the golf green earlier than rolling directly to the small sliver of land that serves as a bridge to the hanging floor.

Then again, the 14-times primary champion’s ball trickled over the again and into the water because the gallery groaned.

Woods compounded his issues via pulling his subsequent shot from the drop zone, a trifling 90-yard pitch that pros may most often execute with their eyes closed.

His ball took one soar and disappeared right into a watery grave past the golf green, forcing him to reload from the similar position.

Woods in spite of everything discovered the guts of the golf green with what was once his 5th shot, and two-putted for seven.

That was once the one blemish on his card, as he compiled 5 birdies for a one-under-par 71.

“The second one wedge didn’t truly wonder me,” Woods informed newshounds of his 2nd water ball. “It was once too flat. The primary one I hit shocked me.

“I used to be beautiful ticked. I used to be sure and decided to get all of it again.”

He posted a three-under 141 midway general that left him six strokes at the back of clubhouse chief Jim Furyk.

The 17th is the place Woods sank a downhill 50-foot birdie putt from the perimeter within the 3rd spherical en path to victory on the 2001 Gamers Championship.

“That’s higher than maximum, this is higher than maximum,” tv commentator Gary Koch famously stated because the ball trundled downhill against the opening, earlier than diving within the cup as Koch exclaimed another time “higher than maximum”.
